It was a 1.8T version.  Not for my car.

Great inspiration in here! Done a bit of research but cant find the answers.. are the TTRS hubs the same as say a regular TT? Also am I right in saying that the mk5 R32 has an alloy rear subframe, and that you could swap out the TT hubs to have a full alloy rear setup?

Yes and No.

Stripped 4th gear.  Box is out and having some new strengthening bits.  Got a new hybrid turbo on now too.  TSi cam follower kit is on.  Car now runs Ohlins with a custom spring setup.

Been collecting all the best bits I can find for the 4wd conversion.  Loads to do still.

That head looks extremely similar to mine Alex,  :wink: Who did that for you and gave the idea of the welding as I've done the same to mine.
